What a fantastic experience we had on board the Lucy Mary for seven wonderful days in mid-July. She is a super vessel, very stable on the sea and very, very comfortable. All the crew members were very personable from James on the wheel, Will and Ruari as guides, Sam the cook and Abbie as our hostess. We had the great experience of having Fingal's Cave Cave on Staffa to ourselves as James made sure we got to the island well before the tour boats arrived - of all the places we were brought, this stood out on its own. For me, Lunga was amazing there being so, so many birds present and being able to get really close to Puffins. We were spoiled with Sam's fantastic cooking and also his willingness to work with stuff we foraged both on the shore and also on land. So, thanks to all in Hebrides Cruises for a really memorable west coast of Scotland experience. Brendan

Amazing time! The crew went the extra mile, despite indifferent weather. Sightings of dolphins (one pod of over 200 !), whales, porpoise, golden and white tailed eagles, otters...... and so much more!. Amazing waterfalls and coastlines, tranquil bays for calm night’s sleep after wonderful food and excellent wine.... topped off by good company and excellent guiding.
